Video Transcript

"Hello, my name is Gabriela Garzon and I'm an image consultant with G.G. Image and Etiquette Consulting in Coral Gables, Florida. In this clip, I'm going to talk about how to select clothes that complement people with dark hair and dark eyes. So pretty much, if you have...in this example, if you have dark hair and dark eyes and dark skin, you should try just medium type of contrast. Like if you see here, she's wearing jeans that are light, and she's wearing a white shirt. This is medium contrast, although it might look like high contrast, but this looks good with this type of skin because it's not overwhelming. Of course, people that have all dark look good in dark colors, but again, this is a more severe type of color. What they should do...in this case, she has yellow undertones, so she looks great with warm colors, such as this green looks great with her skin color and hair. Again, it's a medium type of contrast. And if you wear another warm color like this one, it makes it more joyful and youthful. It brings out all her skin colors, and she can wear just pretty makeup. This is just an example of this type of dark hair, dark eyes, and dark skin. If you have light skin, you should wear higher contrast like black and white and the such. Once again, this is Gabriela Garzon at G.G. Image and Etiquette Consulting in Coral Gables, Florida."
